12. OpenXR OpenXR - Cross-Platform, Portable, Virtual Reality
The OpenXR™ working group – previously known as the Khronos VR Initiative - is creating an open and royalty-free standard for VR and AR applications and devices.
The Problem
The Solution

13. OpenXR Architecture
OpenXR defines two levels of API interfaces that a VR platform’s runtime can use to access the OpenXR ecosystem.
Apps and engines use standardized interfaces to interrogate and drive devices. Devices can self-integrate to a standardized driver interface.
Standardized hardware/software interfaces reduce fragmentation while leaving implementation details open to encourage industry innovation.
